I usually don't like sewing my blocks together in rows -
I much prefer to sew them together in "chunks" or "sections" -
But these rows are pretty short -
And I should be done by now - LOL -
But "chores" keep getting in my way - ;))
When I sew the rows - I find that it is much easier to sew the blocks together if I put the "Crumb" one on the top and the alternate block on the bottom - that way I can see which way the "Crumb" seams are going so I don't accidentally get one folded over -
And the only seams that I have to "match" are where the two sashings meet -
Of course - when I sew the rows together - I'll have to match the seams where the blocks themselves meet - but that's easy peasy - ;))
Hopefully I will be able to "get it together" tomorrow - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

I would call that "logical order". (Of course it helps to be in the right mind).
Very interesting blocks...coming together nicely.
Love the cheddar top. A good way to use all those bits and pieces.

That layout would be harder to do as chunks, I think. Sew it together however you like - it's your quilt! (And that black and white tony bit in the second photo? I have that one!) It's looking great! Do you have plans for these when finished?
It is definitely easier to do a straight setting in "chunks" than to do an on-point setting that way. My normal is sewing rows so doing an on-point setting for me is just working out the size of the setting squares.
